Hi dovecot mailing list people,
After having looked through the mailing list archives, tried various
search engines & asked an LLM to hallucinate an answer all to no avail,
I now pose the following question to you all:
For a Dovecot 2.4 system that uses mail_driver = mdbox for regular
mailboxes and also has a public namespace, how might I invoke the
maintenance routine of `doveadm purge` against the m.1, m.2 ... m.N
files under the mail_path location?
Below is the snippet of what I have in the configuration files for the
public namespace:
namespace public {
type = public
separator = /
prefix = Public/
mail_path = /var/spool/mail/Public
mail_index_private_path = ~/public
subscriptions = yes
mailbox "communal" {
auto = subscribe
}
}
Since my dovecot instance is a self-hosted matter, I am in a position to
move all mail data out of there, delete any left over storage files and
change the mail_driver to Maildir, if that is the easiest way to manage
the risk of dbox m file sprawl/growth.
Best regards,
Luke
